AREA OF A PARALLELOGRAM b h Since the area of the rectangle and parallelogram are the same, just rearranged, what is the formula for the area of this parallelogram?
Area of a Parallelogram • Any side of a parallelogram can be considered a base. The height of a parallelogram is the perpendicular distance between opposite bases. • The area formula is A=bh A=bh A=5(3) A=15m2

Now Let’s Talk Circles…. The circumference of a circle is The distance around a circle Hint: Circumference remember circle around
What is the formula relating the circumference to the diameter? circumference centre Diameter Radius
C = ? x d People knew that the circumference is about 3 times the diameter but they wanted to find out exactly. C ≈ 3 x d This means APPROXIMATELY EQUAL TO
Early Attempts Egyptian Scribe Ahmes. in 1650 B.C. said C≈3.16049 x d Archimedes, said C ≈3.1419 x d Fibonacci. In 1220 A.D. said C≈3.1418xd What is the value of the number that multiplies the diameter to give the circumference????
The exact true value is…………… UNKNOWN!!

Circumference • Remember, circumference is the distance around the circle. • If you divide a circle’s circumference by its diameter, you always get the same irrational number – pi (symbol: ) • This is true of every circle. • We estimate pi to be 3.14 or the fraction 22/7.
Circumference Formulas C = d C = 2r
Example C = d C = (3.14)(41) 41 m C = 128.74 m We substitute 3.14 in for pi.
Finding the Area of a Circle • The formula for the area of a circle is • We say: Area = pi times radius squared
Example A = r2 A = (3.14)(82) 8 mm A =(3.14)(64) A = 200.96 mm2
Example 2 If you are given a diameter, divide it in half to find the radius. 13 divided by 2 equals 6.5 cm. A = r2 13 cm A = (3.14)(6.52) A = (3.14)(42.25) A = 132.665 cm2
A circle is defined by its diameter or radius The Area and Perimeter of a Circle The perimeter or circumference of a circle is the distance around the outside radius The area of a circle is the space inside it Diameter The ratio of π (pi) The circumference is found using the formula C=π d or C= 2πr (since d=2r) The area is found using the formula A=πr2

Complex Figures • Use the appropriate formula to find the area of each piece. • Add the areas together for the total area.
Example 24 cm 10 cm | 27 cm | Split the shape into a rectangle and triangle. The rectangle is 24cm long and 10 cm wide. The triangle has a base of 3 cm and a height of 10 cm.
Solution Rectangle Triangle A = ½ bh A = lw A = ½ (3)(10) A = 24(10) A = 240 cm2 A = ½ (30) A = 15 cm2 Total Figure A = A1 + A2 A = 240 + 15 = 255 cm2
